Get into museums free

UPDATE: April 4 and 5, 2009 are the last free dates. Stay tuned to see if they extend this deal.

PREVIOUSLY: Here is one fabulous reason to have an account with Bank of America. On the first weekend of every month – including the upcoming one – you can get into more than 70 museums across 18 states for free.

We’ve also taken advantage of this. One caveat, so you don’t have the problem we did. It’s one free admission PER card. So my husband and I both have to bring our cards to get in free. I thought it was 2 or the family and didn’t take my wallet, so we wound up having to pay for my entry because I didn’t have the card! We still had to pay for the kids as well. This was at the Discovery Science Center in O.C, don’t know if it’s the same for other museums (and this one also doesn’t work for Sundays, only the one Saturday).

Lastly, this promotion ends next month (I believe, let me know if I’m wrong), so take advantage while you can!

Do you know what is the cheapest B of A account you can get? Marc Germain asked me when I was on his radio show last night (http://talkradioone.com/). For folks who want to get the card basically for the free admission. The site had dates for the rest of the year so I don’t think it ends in April, btw.
